1997The first concepts of Shelly were drawn in 1997, and had a heavy emphasis on sexualization, which was not uncomon the mid-nineties, although a bit embarrasing looking back with 2018 glasses;

1998In 1998 Bombshell was re-drawn again, this time by Dan Panosian. The design was slightly more stylized, but still with a heavy emphasis on sexualization.

1999 - 2001In 1999 - 2001, she got another range of designs by Paul Richards, with some having a closer resembelance to the current version of Shelly. For instance, in one instance she had a bionic arm, while in another she was a bomb defusal expert. This was still the late '90s, with an over-the-top emphasis on sexualization (How far we've come!).

At least the people who make those threads don't keep posting their exploits over and over again, OP. They just ask why we don't make games like DoA, even though it's obvious. No one wants to rock the boat in this SJW-infested shithole we find ourselves in. They only have themselves to blame for it being a shithole politically anyways.

Someone ban this guerrilla marketing piece of shit OP already. STOP SPAMMING THREADS ABOUT A GAME NOBODY GIVES A SHIT.

the devs never made the commentif you mean the (current year) comment over the old design not being used anymore, it’s RIGHT FUCKING THERE in the nsfw post, just because OP is a faggot it doesn’t mean somehow all subsequent discussion of this game is now invalid and the game must never be criticized due to its sanitized character designwhat kind of retarded neogaf logic is that?REEEE THAT PERSON IS A GATOR! QUICK, BAN ALL DISCUSSION OF THAT GAME HE IS TALKING ABOUTREEE HITLER DRANK WATER

The discussion about the devs being SJW is invalid because it never happened. The devs "censoring" the OP is because he made many many shitposts on their forums constantly, not because of criticism. I'm not even sure why I'm responding to you since you're obviously wrong and have no interest in discussing facts. You just want to shitpost because you read on reddit that Sup Forums is for shitposting.

they fucking did and it’s right thereof course the character “never looked like that” in the game since it’s written right there that it is a CONCEPT, which is exactly what characters go through before being actually implemented in he game.the goalpost is being moved from “the character was never changed at all” to “the character never looked like that IN THE GAME”, since of fucking course concept art doesn’t get through the 3d modeling stage in development, only the final versionalsour wrong, u have no interests, u just want to shitpost, u redditholy fucking strawman oniichan, do you even have a single argument to back all that shit up?

Reminder that OP almost exclusively buys indieshit games that no one cares about just to write autistically long reviews no one will ever read.

Links to something that's clearly visible on the exact same store page this review is posted on. I really don't understand what point this guy is trying to make. Can anyone explain this autism to me? Links to something the devs have posted on their own store page for the game as if it's some big scoop he has found out about.

Reposting what another user said in the last thread:

Consider this image. A developer states that Bombshell never looked like any of these designs during the development of Ion Maiden.Recently, a bunch of concepts get posted by the PUBLISHER (3D Realms), not the DEVELOPER (Voidpoint).

The developers were contracted by said publisher to develop a game in the Bombshell IP.Do all of you honestly believe that they were ever shown any of these old concepts to work with?

Also consider that they likely would not have been able to drastically alter the character's design, since it's not their IP.

No it calculates ownersconfirmed for literally not knowing how Steamspy works. It calculates owners by looking at total players, it doesn't have access to how many people bought a game. No one but Valve and the game publisher does.Holy shit.kill yourself.

Who made you dictator of what women are sexy or not? You're they only one implying shit.

You're implying that they're implying that liking sexy women, is backwards... when the truth is, all they're saying is that exaggerated, poorly-drawn/disproportionate Rob Liefeld-level shit is embarrassing in retrospect for what it is, and it is... it's just bad. She looks like a generic bimbo. It stands as an example of shitty character design. The later designs were better, but still only fitting for a Duke Nukem game, not Ion Maiden in it's current incarnation.

Also, Shelly would classify as sexy and attractive to a good number of people, I don't see them shitting on anyone for that. The 80s and 90s weren't without similar, more grounded designs. Not every video game chick needs to be a goddamn deformed whore to be sexy.

Also, just FYI, one of the guys responsible for IM's art is a porn artist, and made stuff like HDoom.

Steamspy quite clearly differentiates between owners and active playersBecause when you stop playing a game, you stop being an active player, you don't stop being an owner. You're fucking retarded. Explain right now how you think Steamspy is able to keep track of private refunds between owners and Valve or you're full of shit.

Lol nope, steamspy works by scanning every steam profile to see who owns what game The site uses an application programming interface (API) to the Steam software distribution service that is owned by Valve Corporation to estimate the number of sales of software titles offered on the service. Estimates are made based on the API polling user profiles from Steam to determine what software titles (primarily video games) they own and using statistics to estimate overall sales. Software developers have reported that Galyonkin's algorithms can provide sales numbers that are accurate to within 10%Skyrim has 12 million owners, does that mean 12 million people are playing it right now? Absolutely not. Explain right now how you think Steamspy is able to keep track of private refunds between owners and Valve or you're full of shit.When the number of people who own the game goes down, that means people refunded it.

He's also wrong, but it's pretty fun to make fun of someone who's clearly an underaged faggot who should fuck off back to plebbit.

Ok. The op may be incorrect that the devs get triggered by attractive women. Sure.

But that does not change the fact that there are many other western men, developers, reviewers, critics, """journalists""", game Devs etc etc that legitimately are embarrassed by attractive women. It's a legit topic to talk about.

No. "Owned" means "owned". It includes games bought on Steam, bought in retail and then activated on Steam, bought in bundles, recieved through promotions or as a gift and so on. It also includes copies temporarily given away on "free weekends", so take care when coming to conclusions about sales or revenue.

There's so many of these idiots around. I get into arguments with ppl on steam who come on your profile and with nothing to base their assumptions off, just scream liberal at you and the usual shit.
